Quite often bitstream providers that have been given monopoly situation by the city (or even owned by the city), i.e. completely under control by public services, i.e. indirectly by politicians.

While I completely agree with you on the content (including NAT and Law enforcement and bitstream services) , I think we have to be careful with “jargon”. Language that makes sense to us, but not for outsiders. For example “bitstream services”. I know what these are, bus does everybody?
I also saw the word “homenet” in the doc. I’ve asked my direct colleagues, but none of them knows what it means. 

Cheers,
Nathalie
